Job Overview

To drive Manufacturing Engineering for Turn-Mill and advanced machining processes, with focus on new product industrialization, process development, technology advancement, and continuous improvement.
Ensure robust, capable, and cost-effective manufacturing processes through DFM, process optimization, capacity planning, risk mitigation, digital manufacturing, and structured problem-solving, delivering improvements in quality, productivity, OEE, cost, and overall manufacturing performance.

Job Requirements

•    Lead manufacturing process development and industrialization for new products on Turn-Mill, Swiss type machines and multi-channel machining centres & feasibility through serial production.
•    Perform manufacturing feasibility and DFM reviews, recommending product and process improvements to achieve manufacturability, quality, cost, and productivity targets.
•    Develop, prove out, and optimize CNC programs and machining processes, including process sequence, cutting parameters, tool paths, fixtures/work-holding, tooling, gauges, and inspection methods.
•    Utilize CAD/CAM (SolidCAM) for process development, programming, and simulation & Post processor activities along with working knowledge of SAP MM.
•    Establish and validate new manufacturing processes through component prove-out, FAI, process capability studies (Cp/Cpk), and production ramp-up.
•    Drive productivity and cost improvements through cycle-time optimization, setup reduction, tool-life improvement, operation balancing, automation, scrap/rework reduction, and OEE enhancement.
•    Prepare manufacturing cost estimates, cycle-time calculations, capacity assessments, tooling and capital requirements, and Make-vs-Buy analysis to support business and investment decisions.
•    Lead the technical evaluation, installation, commissioning, and process validation of new machining equipment, coordinating with equipment suppliers and cross-functional teams.
•    Perform capacity planning, machine-loading analysis, equipment requirement assessment, and manufacturing layout planning for new products and capacity expansion.
•    Develop and maintain key manufacturing documentation, including PFC, PFMEA, Control Plans, SOPs, setup sheets, tooling lists, process parameters, and CNC program documentation.
•    Lead structured problem-solving and root-cause analysis for machining, dimensional, tooling, process quality, and productivity issues, ensuring sustainable corrective actions.
•    Support engineering changes, process changes, product launches, and Lessons Learned, ensuring effective transition and sustainability in serial production.

What your background should look like

•    Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering (BE/B. Tech) or equivalent. 
•    Strong knowledge of machining processes, tooling, fixtures, gauges, manufacturing methods, and process engineering principles. 
•    Strong working knowledge of CNC CAM software (SolidCAM / Esprit)
•    Strong understanding of GD&T and machining tolerances
•    Knowledge of Backshells, connectors, and wire harnesses will be an added advantage. 
•    Strong analytical, problem-solving, communication, stakeholder, and project management skills, with focus on quality, cost, delivery, and productivity.
•    Minimum 5+ years of hands-on experience in component prove-out, with multi-channel preferred, including 2-axis, 3-axis, and mill-turn/live tooling environments.
•    Proven experience in machining process development, CNC programming, process optimization, and production industrialization, preferably involving NPI/NPD projects.
•    Define & develop work holding, tooling, and datum strategies & document machining processes for new and legacy components.
•    Experience in assembly/manufacturing environments, with successful execution of NPI/NPD projects. 
•    Experience in automation projects and Special Purpose Machine (SPM) implementation will be an added advantage.
